    All about the Gudibande Fort Trek.

    Hey Hikers!

    If you are looking for a short break from the city life of Bengaluru without much straining yourself, then Gudibande Fort is a great option for a day trek. Gudibande is a multi layered fort built in the style of another popular fort – Madhugiri. There are multiple things to explore through the trek like rain water ponds, a temple, ruins of the fort and tunnels build as escape routes. Like most of the hills, view from the top is really worth the climb.

    Come, join Muddie Trails / Monks on Wheels for a short little day trip!

    Highlights of Gudibande Trip:

    • Panoramic views of surrounding landscapes and Byrasagara Lake

      • We will hike up from the Gudibande village, explore the fort, temple, peek into tunnel pathways made as escape routes.
      • The view gets better and better as we climb up. It usually takes about an hour to hour-and-half to ascend with rest stops.
      • Either you want to bask under the Sun and have a peaceful me-time or you want to take those innumerable selfies/pictures, there is lots of space for everything at the top of the fort.

      • June to Sept (monsoon months): Intermittent rains may invite us at the Gudibande trek. Be a little careful to avoid slippery rocks.
      • Oct to Feb (winter, pre-summer):  Pleasant weather, dry climate for Uttaribetta trek. Good time to trek for beautiful views.
      • March to May (summer): Since days are long and hot in summer, we usually change this event to Gudibande Sunrise trek, we would start in Bangalore around midnight. This event posting will be updated accordingly.
